Subsurface exploration tools for geothermal purposes (PETGEM)
Patent number:
No items found.
It consists in several software-based technologies used to explore and monitor the subsurface. They use geophysical data and produce accurate maps of complex subsurface structures. The technologies are developed for very economically intensive businesses, such as hydrocarbon exploration. These technologies are nowadays becoming more affordable due to the increase in computing capacity of current computer clusters, and can start to be applied to less intensive fields such as geothermal exploration or geologic carbon storage.
